Galloping along the magical avenue or enjoying a two-hour ride without crossing a single road is part of everyday life for riders at Le Br\u00e9vedent. <\/p>\n
The equestrian centre is the starting point for many rides and longer outings. We are fortunate to be able to ride for several hours without crossing a single road!
\nSeveral options are available to riders. Whether beginners or experienced, we tailor our rides to your needs. Treat yourself to a horse ride in the heart of the countryside, with the option of tasting local products, and enjoy a magical moment with family or friends.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

History of the Equestrian Centre<\/h2><\/div>The Coutable family purchased the site in the 1950s to develop a poultry farming activity. Later, driven by their shared passion for horses, the business evolved into an equestrian centre in the 1970s.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Jean-Luc Coutable, a member of the family, became deeply involved and excelled in eventing, competing at the European Championships at the Haras du Pin and later at the world\u2019s most challenging eventing competition, Badminton, in 1970.
\nThe Br\u00e9vedent equestrian complex was established shortly afterwards and became a flagship of horse riding, gaining national recognition.
\nJoined by Cathy in 1992, they went on to train many instructors, coach numerous riders in competition, and host examination sessions.
\nOver the years, Cathy and Jean-Luc have welcomed many riders, along with their children who in turn come to learn horse riding in this place that means so much to them.
\nIn 1998, I passed my Galop 7 at Le Br\u00e9vedent. I later passed on my passion to our daughter Eva, who has had her mare in livery at Le Br\u00e9vedent since 2020 \u2014 the circle is complete!<\/p>\n
In 2023, Cathy and Jean-Luc decided to sell the club, the business of their lifetime. Deeply attached to the place and its people, Rapha\u00ebl and I chose to take it over to continue the equestrian centre\u2019s activity, modernise it, and ensure this wonderful place keeps welcoming both the children of former riders and many new ones. <\/p>\n
In 2025, we took over the equestrian centre and began offering equestrian stays, as tourism is naturally at the heart of our expertise.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Outside of course periods, our ponies live out in the fields in a herd, and they are very happy that way! They are brought into the large barn when the weather is too bad or when it\u2019s time for lessons, and they love showing off and clowning around to entertain everyone. <\/p>\n
The barn provides a spacious semi-free living area for the ponies, as well as a dedicated area for their preparation, sheltered from the rain or the sun!<\/p>\n
The small indoor arena is ideal for teaching beginners\u2019 lessons, while the outdoor arena offers more space for jumping sessions, Equifun and a wide range of games. As for the nearby forest, it allows children to get some fresh air and enjoy the countryside in every season, without ever needing to cross a road. <\/p>\n
Our instructors are fantastic with younger riders, helping them grow in confidence and progress steadily, without fear and while having fun!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\nIn 1998, I passed my Galop 7 at Le Br\u00e9vedent. I later passed on my passion to our daughter Eva, who has had her mare in livery at Le Br\u00e9vedent since 2020 \u2014 the circle is complete!<\/p>\n
In 2023, Cathy and Jean-Luc decided to sell the club, the business of their lifetime. Deeply attached to the place and its people, Rapha\u00ebl and I chose to take it over to continue the equestrian centre\u2019s activity, modernise it, and ensure this wonderful place keeps welcoming both the children of former riders and many new ones. <\/p>\n
In 2025, we took over the equestrian centre and began offering equestrian stays, as tourism is naturally at the heart of our expertise.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>The Pony Club<\/h2><\/div>The pony club would be nothing without its ponies: a wonderful team of ponies is ready to give children unforgettable moments!<\/p>\n
Outside of course periods, our ponies live out in the fields in a herd, and they are very happy that way! They are brought into the large barn when the weather is too bad or when it\u2019s time for lessons, and they love showing off and clowning around to entertain everyone. <\/p>\n
The barn provides a spacious semi-free living area for the ponies, as well as a dedicated area for their preparation, sheltered from the rain or the sun!<\/p>\n
The small indoor arena is ideal for teaching beginners\u2019 lessons, while the outdoor arena offers more space for jumping sessions, Equifun and a wide range of games. As for the nearby forest, it allows children to get some fresh air and enjoy the countryside in every season, without ever needing to cross a road. <\/p>\n
Our instructors are fantastic with younger riders, helping them grow in confidence and progress steadily, without fear and while having fun!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

General description of the premises<\/h2><\/div>The Br\u00e9vedent Equestrian Centre is located in Normandy, in the heart of the Pays d\u2019Auge, two hours from Paris and 30 minutes from the Normandy coast, Deauville and Honfleur.

Galloping along the magical avenue or enjoying a two-hour ride without crossing a single road is part of everyday life for riders at Le Br\u00e9vedent. <\/p>\n
The equestrian centre is the starting point for many rides and longer outings. We are fortunate to be able to ride for several hours without crossing a single road!
\nSeveral options are available to riders. Whether beginners or experienced, we tailor our rides to your needs. Treat yourself to a horse ride in the heart of the countryside, with the option of tasting local products, and enjoy a magical moment with family or friends.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Philosophy & Team<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Owners Jess and Rapha\u00ebl: she has been a rider all her life, he is a musician. With 20 years of experience in tourism, they love organising events and, above all, creating shared moments and unforgettable experiences.

The world is changing, and so is horse riding. Our goal is to offer a unique experience through the kindness of our teaching team and their commitment to providing learning that is both fun and demanding. <\/p>\n
For over 60 years, the Br\u00e9vedent Equestrian Centre has welcomed both children and adults in an exceptional setting. In 2025, we are modernising the facilities to offer high-quality services and tailor-made experiences. Authenticity and hospitality are at the heart of the team\u2019s values, and continuing the story of this unique place is truly meaningful to us. <\/p>\n
On a daily basis, the well-being of our riders is a priority, and the well-being of our ponies and horses is just as essential to us. Every decision is made with the aim of respecting the balance and welfare of our equines. <\/p>\n

History of the Equestrian Centre<\/h2><\/div>The Coutable family purchased the site in the 1950s to develop a poultry farming activity. Later, driven by their shared passion for horses, the business evolved into an equestrian centre in the 1970s.<\/p>\n<\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Jean-Luc Coutable, a member of the family, became deeply involved and excelled in eventing, competing at the European Championships at the Haras du Pin and later at the world\u2019s most challenging eventing competition, Badminton, in 1970.
\nThe Br\u00e9vedent equestrian complex was established shortly afterwards and became a flagship of horse riding, gaining national recognition.
\nJoined by Cathy in 1992, they went on to train many instructors, coach numerous riders in competition, and host examination sessions.
\nOver the years, Cathy and Jean-Luc have welcomed many riders, along with their children who in turn come to learn horse riding in this place that means so much to them.
\nIn 1998, I passed my Galop 7 at Le Br\u00e9vedent. I later passed on my passion to our daughter Eva, who has had her mare in livery at Le Br\u00e9vedent since 2020 \u2014 the circle is complete!<\/p>\n
In 2023, Cathy and Jean-Luc decided to sell the club, the business of their lifetime. Deeply attached to the place and its people, Rapha\u00ebl and I chose to take it over to continue the equestrian centre\u2019s activity, modernise it, and ensure this wonderful place keeps welcoming both the children of former riders and many new ones. <\/p>\n
In 2025, we took over the equestrian centre and began offering equestrian stays, as tourism is naturally at the heart of our expertise.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>The Pony Club<\/h2><\/div>The pony club would be nothing without its ponies: a wonderful team of ponies is ready to give children unforgettable moments!<\/p>\n
Outside of course periods, our ponies live out in the fields in a herd, and they are very happy that way! They are brought into the large barn when the weather is too bad or when it\u2019s time for lessons, and they love showing off and clowning around to entertain everyone. <\/p>\n
The barn provides a spacious semi-free living area for the ponies, as well as a dedicated area for their preparation, sheltered from the rain or the sun!<\/p>\n
The small indoor arena is ideal for teaching beginners\u2019 lessons, while the outdoor arena offers more space for jumping sessions, Equifun and a wide range of games. As for the nearby forest, it allows children to get some fresh air and enjoy the countryside in every season, without ever needing to cross a road. <\/p>\n
Our instructors are fantastic with younger riders, helping them grow in confidence and progress steadily, without fear and while having fun!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
